Q:What's the difference between Spam and Scam?
A:Spelling!

Get Rich quick schemes, Porn Site posts that 
auto load the web page  when a message is open;
They're advertising for free, but is it cheap
for us?

Makers of Bulk mailers and heat seeking Usenet
advertising software get by with impunity.
They aren't cluttering the Network...
They just make a product...  

Some people propose a postage rate for e-mail
arguing that the increased cost will discourage
bulk e-mailers. I think spammers have more savy
than that. 

The cold war never had as many missles,
anti-missles, and anti-missle missles 
as the War on Spam. Sending a polite 
note gets you on their list. Canceling
their message gets 10 more messages posted
under different phony names, maybe even
under yours. Nobody is willing to
admit who they really are anymore
for fear of having their e-mail 
address culled out by robots.

Even more critical to the Internet's being
and use and practicallity, than privacy,
is a sense of honesty.
